\\== Theme Installation ==//

//== Boot Video Installation ==\\

PREVIEW OF INTRO MOVIE: MATRIX.AVI

1) Download default.conf (I edited it so you save time)
2) Connect to your N900 via SSH(search if you don't know how to do that)
3) Once connected, paste the default.conf you downloaded from step 1 to /etc/hildon-welcome.d/ and overwrite the current one
4) To install the intro movie you need to transfer the video file to /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media/
5) Reboot your device and enjoy

OR

1) Download default.conf and matrix.avi
2) Add these files on N900 Documents folder
3) Open Xterm and type:

Code:

sudo gainroot

mv /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/matrix.avi /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media/

mv /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/default.conf /etc/hildon-welcome.d/

\\== Boot Video Installation ==//

If you want to revert back to the default nokia boot video(Hands-v32-h264.avi) copy this default.conf
to your N900 Documents folder, open xterm and type:

Code:

sudo gainroot

mv home/user/MyDocs/.documents/default.conf /etc/hildon-welcom.d/

Re: [Theme] Matrix

looks cool i will try it later and give you feed back.
is there a new swipe unlock screen too ?

Re: [Theme] Matrix

No, it's the same with the default theme in green.
I am making a new one right now, will update soon.

Re: [Theme] Matrix

Downloaded the deb package and installed.
It wrote about omitting some directories, but it works nicely.

Looks great. Thank you.

Re: [Theme] Matrix

@plaban: there is a link to .deb file in the opening post.

Re: [Theme] Matrix

Ok, here is a new lock screen for the Matrix theme.

To install the new lock screen all you need to do is install the theme(read first post) and then move the 3 pngs attached on this post(Matrix_lock_screen.zip) to:

Code:

/usr/share/themes/matrix/images

and overwrite the current ones.

Re: [Theme] Matrix

Nice one! Black and green are the natural colors for many of us :)

I don't like the blue highlight for the large buttons (music player main screen, application manager), green would be more consistent?
